In recent years, ignition and smoke generation due to aging or poor quality of lithium-ion batteries have been reported internationally. Based on this situation, the “Fire Resistant Bag” was planned, developed, and born from the voices of ANA flight attendants on site.
This product is designed to quickly and safely deal with electronic devices showing signs of abnormal heat or deformation by combining the fire extinguishing film “fsFilm” *2 developed by TOPPAN, which releases an aerosol with a fire extinguishing effect when a fire occurs, and a “fireproof bag” *3 provided by Kikuchi Sheet, and can prevent the spread of fire. Furthermore, it is designed to be lightweight and compact, taking into account installation on all ANA, AirJapan, and ANA Wings aircraft. Three companies, ANA Group, Kikuchi Seat, and TOPPAN, have collaborated to realize a method that allows flight attendants to respond quickly, reliably, and safely.
This product, which combines a “fireproof bag” and “fsFilm,” is part of an effort that puts safety first. The three companies have begun selling “Fire Resistant Bags,” and will continue to prioritize safety and promote initiatives utilizing the latest technology.
*2 “FS Film”
“FS film” is a film with an excellent initial fire extinguishing effect that can be installed over a long period of time by combining TOPPAN's coating technology with the transparent vapor deposition barrier film “GL BARRIER” with a fire extinguishing agent that emits an aerosol with a high fire extinguishing effect.
